Finder repeatedly quits after performing Quickstart/iDVD update and restart
I just did an Apple update on Quicktime and iDVD, performed the mandatory restart, signed on and, once I got to the full Desktop, I began to get the following, identical problem message, every minute or so: Finder quit unexpectedly, EXCBADACCESS (0x0001)
KERNINVALIDADDRESS (0x0001) at 0x9002704c
Thread 3 Crashed:
0 0 + -1878888372
1 0 + 16946052
I can keep working after closing this error message.
I have reported this to Apple and have tried restarting my computer to no avail.
Any suggestions??

USB quits after 10.4.11 update and can't read external Lacie drive contents
Performed update through Software Updater. (After reading this forum, I now know better for future updates) Now, my USB ports don't work and external Lacie drive looks blank. Plugged USB devices into PC and they work fine. From PC on same network, I can see all the files on the Lacie. Repaired disk permissions, shut down and unplugged everything, even power cord, and let it "think" for several hours. Still same problems. USB lights up for a few seconds then shuts down. Tried all USB ports, same problem. I can connect to external HD but it appears that all the files are gone.
Still not working.
I ran applejack, then re-installed the combo upgrade for 10.4.11, gave it several restarts, still no USB power or access to external HD. One thing that I notice, when starting up and the grey screen is up, the USB is lit. As soon as the little clock thing starts "running" in a circle, the lights go out. If I unplug then re-plug the USB devices, the lights come on for just a few seconds and then go out. Same results with and without USB hub in both ports. This is our old machine used mostly by kids for iTunes so we must attach the iPod to it or they will be on the new iMac, fresh out of the box!
BTW, we were 'tricked' into this upgrade. iTunes gave an error message saying that we had to upgrade or some features would no longer work. After the upgrade, iTunes said it would not load until we upgraded the OS X. I just jumped from 10.4.3 to 10.4.11 because that was the latest version. I have always trusted Apple and never had a problem, until now -
I tried to update the latest software update for my MacBook pro (which was on 10/12) and after it started to update it restarted like normal but when it started back up it was running painfully slow and none oft programs will open.They all quit unexpectedly. iTunes microsoft word all of them quit unexpectedly. Help!
Exact same problem with my 2010 MBP 2.4ghz 4gb ram 10.6.8. iTunes said update was needed, Software Update ran with various updates including a security update, truthfully didn't pay much attention, I always install the Apple updates. After the restart it took 3-4 times longer than normal to get to the login screen, same to get to the desktop but I'm familiar with that occurring on update restarts. Unfortunately it got worse from there. Performed a full shutdown and startup. Same long boot. After the desktop finally loads every mouse button press received a 2 minute beachball. I use menu-meters and both processors are under 10%. Waited a few minutes for disk utilities to launch, repair permissions estimates 3 hours for a typical <10 minute process. Activity monitor shows nothing over 10% CPU most of the time however ReportCrash pops to the top often. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. BTW zero problems until this update.

No Airdrop for iPhone 4S. And the Camera should be the same place it was before. Did you try searching Spotlight for it?

An internal error has occurred: ?:0: attempt to index a nil value after installing LR5.5 update and trying to play or preview slideshow. Never had this problem before. I went to forums and see that this is a problem with previous versions and this only occurred after installing lastest update.
Jeannine,
If you follow the advice of the previous poster Julie Kmoch and then gradualy add presets back in one at a time you might be able to find the one that is causing the issue. I may be guessing, but I believe the issue has something to do with either an incompatible Preset setting (eg a older preset in newer version of LR) or a corrupt Preset.
Say you bought LR2 and imported a bunch of Presets from the internet, cuz 'Hey these effects are cool and I don't have to recreate the wheel', and then you upgraded to LR3 (not a clean install) and now one of the Presets that calls a certain slider setting or value that is different in LR3 doesn't work anymore. This might be why it throws the error, but again I am just speculating.
Location of LR Preset folder in Windows Vista/ Windows 7
C:/Users/<YourUserName>/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Lightroom/Develop Presets
If you do not see the folder AppData, you may need to change the settings in Windows Explorer to 'Show Hidden Files and Folders'. To do that in Windows Vista/ Windows 7, open a Windows Explorer window, Click on Organize, then Foler and Search Options. Then click on the View tab and select the option button next to Show hidden files, folders and drives.
Hope this helps a bit,

Why does the App store say 'download' to OSX Mavericks when i have already downloaded the update, and restarted the computer?
I can't find Mavericks icon on the dashboard or launchpad either! Help!It sounds like you've installed Mavericks. You can confirm this by clicking on the Apple located at the top left of the screen and choosing "About This Mac" from the menu. You should see a window appear with the text "Version 10.9.1" near the middle.
If it says "Version 10.9.1", then you've installed Mavericks. It still says "Download" in the App Store because you can still download the operating system after installing it. This is useful if you want to download it for a friend, or create a USB boot drive.

OS X Yosemite v10.10.3 Update - I had problems with my iMac after installing the previous update and I removed that update. Have there been problems associated with this update ?
I've been using it on all of my computer without any problems. Remember you won't see any positive comments here. Everyone here is complaining about a problem. If you want a good experience with any upgrade or update first make a backup from which you can boot the computer. If you are installing an update, like 10.10.3 for example, always download and install the Combo Updater - OS X Yosemite 10.10.3 Combo Update. Before you install any update or upgrade over an existing system you should do this:Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions:
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility and press the Continue button. After Disk Utility loads select the Macintosh HD entry from the the left side list. Click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If Disk Utility reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit Disk Utility and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu. -
I performed a software update and the system is installing an update but it has been running for over 24hrs and keeps saying "This may take a few minutes, don't shut down your computer" Can anyone help?
Hello cor-el, thanks for your reply. I changed my settings for downloads to desktop and it has appeared on there. When I double click I am asked which program I want to open file. I click firefox and another box "opening install" says I have chosen to open the file which is an application and do I want to save it. This is the only real option so I press save file. I get a box saying this is an executable file which may contain viruses - do you want to run. I press ok and the final box showing C drive file name and desktop appears stating application not found.
This happens the same whenever I try to install.
To my untrained eye the application is not being recognised as an application and I cannot work out how to get it to do that.
My plugin is still showing as out of date.
Is there anything you could suggest. Thanks for your time. -
Freezing up after latest 10.5 update when restarting computer or waking fro
Freezing up after latest 10.5 update when restarting computer or waking from sleep. Is anyone else seeing this?
I am having the same problem with the screen not waking up after it goes to sleep. Once I was able to recover with pressing the power button just long enough to wake it but not restart. The other two times I had to power down and restart -- I also got the jagged screen graphics once.
I have been experiencing this since I installed the 10.5.3 update. It seems to be ok if I put the computer to sleep using 'Sleep' on the Apple menu, but if my screen saver comes on and it goes to sleep on its own, then I have problems waking it.
Frustrating - I don't like to power down and restart my iMac if I can avoid it. -
NOthing I do gets my volume back, nothing. I wish I could get the ios 5 back just so I won't have this issue, I hate the new software!
Right,
This has been going on now since the update began.
The phone does this weather i slide the volume button to silent then back, I use the volume buttons and get that picture you see above.I restart volume off then back on. I adjust settings turning everything off include adjust volume with buttons, then back on.I check the do not disturb under settings.
I'm not an idiot, I have messed with everything, restarted, tried it on and off the charger.
Sometimes it just has no sound, like the phone doesn't realize there even is a volume as you can see in the above pic, there is no gage that even lets you mess with the volume because it's not muted, it's just not there. Then randomly at some point it comes back.
This all started after the ios 6 update, and I was hoping it would get fixed. I miss the ios5 and have been considering moving over to android with the new Samsung galaxy 3....because right now apple is not beig very technical friendly at all. -
I make some updates and restart my Macbook Pro, and the screen became Grey with 3 beeps with Led.
I read it could be the RAM memory. So I opened it and tried to reconected them.. but the problem continues.. So I asume it was one of the memories or one of the Slots... But when I tried them separetly all the Slots and memories worked... But togheter the problems continues.
Any suggestion?
The Mac worked perfect! There where just some updates...and before the restart, a pop up appeared saying that the updates could not be done because of an error... after that... the restart, the grey screen, and the 3 beeps with 3 leds.
Thanks and sorry for the bad english!
PS: Its 2008 so no warranty.
Hernan.Have you tried putting back the original memory and seeing if that works?
Also if you could tell us the mode of the MBP, how much memory was in it and what you are upgrading to it would help. -
Script servers update and restart
i would like to automate install updates and restart for the servers on scheduled time (or initiate manually for all/groups) that are on GPO option 3 (download updates but let me install).
I found couple of discussions from year 2010 and there is a success after many suggestions. But it is a bit time consuming to follow all this. So, may there is a definite step by step guide.
Thanks
"When you hit a wrong note it's the next note that makes it good or bad". Miles DavisI am talking about the servers that will not cause any disruption.
1. All servers are on option GPO option 3 (download updates only).
2. In my case I talk about 15 hyper-v hosts with 2 VMs each (DC and Print server).
So I know that any time Saturday, Sunday or any night time will not cause any problem.
So instead of login to 15 HV hosts and then to 2 VMs on each for launching Windows update and restart I guess it is a valid option to run a script and get notification. The servers are generally HEALTHY so even in case of some error or non restart I can
manage it after getting a notification.
I believe people using this scenario.

Video no longer plays from sites on comedy central. Site says browser must be updated, but I have installed all updates and restarted the computer..twice.
If it is any consolation this started happening to me today. I am in Toronto. I am wondering if there is a copyright issue here. I have done nothing to solve it - mostly because I suspect this has nothing to do with my computer.
p.s. My speculation about copyright is not correct. Comedy Central plays fine with Google Chrome. Have not yet tested Firefox. -
With Firefox 4 gmail stays logged in after Firefox is shut down and restarted
This is related to the post mentioned here: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/811479
with a twist.
In Firefox 4 if you shut down the browser without signing out of gmail you stay signed in, even after a full system shutdown and restart.
I HAVE NO APP TABS etc, and my security settings are also normal (viz. no stay signed in etc etc) I also always use HTTPS
(In earlier versions, if you didnt always use https, then shutting the browser wouldnt log you out. But if you always used https, you would be logged out)
Heres what happens: First let me make it clear that I have no app tabs, and all the other settings are correct (viz. no stay signed in etc etc). Now say one of the open tabs is my mail inbox. If I close and restart browser, I'll be in my inbox!! (Earlier versions of firefox took me to the login page).
Whats the issue here? Does everyone else also experience this?This is a massive design flaw or bug and needs fixing; I can't recall a larger direct security issue than leaving people prepped for auto-login upon closing a browser, and to one of the most popular email providers in the world. Persisting since v.4 all the way up to current v7.0.1. Ridiculous.
